Curse of Radiance Chapter 6, Episode 7 - Slaying a God Wasn't Enough


Here we are, folks- the end of another story arc. The party has killed an assassin's guild, a mad red wizard, the head of a mercenary company, and now, the cult of a dead god. They have only one more goal before their quest is over: to defeat the immortal possessing spirit, Tyranthraxus, and destroy the source of his power, a Pool of Radiance. So this week, we have the calm before the storm- for the end is near.

It's been a wild ride so far, and I suspect the wildest part is still to come. The final story arc for this podcast isn't going to be quite as long as the others- it was mostly coincidence that they all ended up being seven episodes long, but in this case, scheduling had made it increasingly difficult to get the podcast recorded so we as a group opted to wrap up this coming story arc a little bit faster than the rest. So I hope you enjoy the remaining few episodes as much as the rest!

I just want to throw out a thank you to everyone who's been listening so far- I finished editing these last episodes just a few days ago, and it still hasn't completely set in that this is all going to be over soon. I love this campaign, I love the people who were willing to put their time into helping me make it, and I love you all for listening. I hope you love this podcast.

Thanks to everyone out there, and enjoy the next few episodes!

Curse of Radiance Chapter 6, Episode 6 - Freeman Wanted to Title This Episode "Rude"


Well, it happened. The dead god Moander, the Darkbringer, the Jawed God, the Abomination, "Old Moldy", has been brought back to life (again) and Fennec, Ildana, and Benjil had a front-row seat. To make matters worse, Alias and Dragonbait- previously freed from their own tattoos- are now utterly under Moander's thrall. Ancient lore states that if Moander is not defeated "the right way", his form will overtake the entire realm. So what are our heroes going to do? I guess you'll have to listen to find out!

Real talk for a moment: this session was terrifying to run. (Even while editing it, knowing how it ends, I kept asking myself, "How TF are they going to survive this?") It's not easy statting out a god (even a newborn one), but I think I did a pretty good job, and I'm really happy with the result. I hope you all are happy listening to it!

With the release of this episode, though, I am reminded that we are nearing the end. There's one more episode in this story arc after this one, and then the home stretch. And then it's over. I've been working on this show for about three and a half years at this point, and the fact that most of it is already out to the public still hasn't quite hit me. I'll probably wake up in a cold sweat sometime in like June wondering if I forgot to upload an episode or stressing over when I'm going to find time to edit- and then my wife will call me down, remind me that this is all behind me, and so on.

Anyway, I hope you're all having a good time out there, and be sure to check back next week for the end of this story arc!

Curse of Radiance Chapter 6, Episode 5 - You May Have Noticed A Theme For These Boss Episode Titles


We're back, everyone, with another action-packed episode! In this entry, the party has found themselves seemingly trapped by the power of their tattoos inside the temple of Moander, the Jawed God. With no way out but in, they find their way to the inner sanctum where the cult's high priestess is in the middle of a powerful new ritual- a ritual that needs blood. And one way or another, blood WILL be spilled.

I'm really happy with how this one turned out, and just you wait until you get to the ending! There ain't no getting offa this train we're on, so enjoy the ride!
